Hey Sir johnee!

Just been singing your praises on another thread, and I'm really glad you're here!

I've already told you personally, but I'll say it again... your trailer is absolutely fantastic, and has raised the bar for future LBP levels. Can't wait for the finished level!

See you soon!

Yea the moment I got your message I jumped right in and was in awe of what you did.

The camera panning, the lighting, the use of the wonderful vehicles you've created and interesting narrative all created an amazing atmosphere. One depicting chaos and how war can be like rock paper scissors.

I loved how you made destruction look beautiful. I said it in the comments, but I really was impressed with the minor details you put in. For example, the camera shake when your mini power armors were taking fire. Things like that and the final explosion were just plain awesome.

Your right to say its the first level of its kind. I've never seen anything else like it and I'm sure we won't for quite some time.

Can't wait for the actual level. I'm just curious whether or not you can fit it into one level if you plan to include all of these different vehicles. I know firsthand how much thermometer space a saved object can take up. If anything I recommend you create the series in parts so that you can fit the scope of the tale into some sort of mini series a la band of brothers.

Anyway hope to hear from you again soon concerning your next creation!

OMG... SSOOOOO AWESOME!... I think Fusionboxer has said everything that I feel right now... But I think I'll just add that this was EPIC!
Thanks for sharing this, you have just top my list of most favourite creator!

Hey Johnee, welcome to the forum!

I've heard a lot about you and just recently had the opportunity to check out all of your stuff. You've got some awesome creations and a great cinematic eye. I watched the trailer a couple days ago and was throughly impressed. You might start a new trend, LBP based trailers!

If you can capture the same look and feel of the trailer with the entire level (and I have no doubt that you can!), then the LBP community is in for a treat. I'm really looking forward to it! Well done!

But I do have some things I want to say that bugged me. First the floor. Please do not use the floor of a level. It just looks kinda out of the place. You'll see that many agree.

Second use a kind of gray background. I think it would get a better atmosphere.

But still the level is OMG HOLY *****!!! 10000000000000000000000 stars for you

Wow that was fantastic. I wish I knew how to do that sort of thing. Is there any chance you could do a tutorial on how to do stuff like that because I wouldn't have a clue where to begin.

You probably don't want to give away your secrets but just the basics would be great so that I could experiment a little on my own.

BTW I love the flamethrower on your power armour machine and would love to make a miniature hand held version. Any chance of spilling the beans on that too ?

I understand if not. Keep up the great work mate.

Welcome to the forums!

i saw this level and it was a true piece of art (maybe you might remember that phrase if you check your lbp comments :p) i loved the part when the two power armor suits were getting shot at by those floor turrets.

your a great inspiration and i love your work, keep it up :)

why ain't this in cool levels?

From the "About Cool Levels" thread by Confused Cartman:

"When a Level Showcase thread reaches 20 replies or more, it will be automatically promoted to "Cool" status and moved to this forum. That means that nearly every high-quality level will be promoted to Cool status eventually."

Hey johnee

As someone who is completely clueless when it comes to the mechanical side of LBP, your vehicles impress me no end. The bi-ped demo was amaze!

"When a Level Showcase thread reaches 20 replies or more, it will be automatically promoted to "Cool" status and moved to this forum. That means that nearly every high-quality level will be promoted to Cool status eventually."

My bad... I thought moderators just put every topic up that has a cool level :/

Well that was spectacular!

Hopefully one day Mm will change magic mouths so that they don`t have to show an empty speech bubble if you`re not saying anythin. Really enjoyed that. Didn`t think it was possible!

That was quite good.....who am I kidding, IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!

The cameras, the movements, your awesome mechanical beasts, the list goes on!!
The giant mech-foot stepping on the flower was so cinematic!!
The way you created the flamethrowers absolutely blew my mind!!

thanks guys for all the comments, now if i could just get a job at mm?

The trailer was AMAZING! Better than most peoples actual levels :D . I really want to make a movie in LBP now...Anyway, can't wait for the level, your levels are amazing especially Future warzone 1. Judging by the trailer, this one is going to be even better.

SWEET level!!!! I found it on the cool levels a few days ago. Here's my feedback:

PROS: I loved how you were creative with magic mouths, using them as cameras. I love mechanical stuff, so I LOVED this level. It felt like I was actually watching a movie. The decoration, lighting, EVERYTHING is AMAZING!!!!! It must have taken forever to perfect it!!! 5/5 and a heart. :)

He makes my levels looks like crap... he steals my job... he sleeps with my...... ****

Oh? I was supposed to post? Great job!! EPIC level. I think I'd rather you made a movie like this than an actual level lol. You could fully do that!! Would be awesome! :)

5* and a heart.

I agree on the poster before on a better background and not using the floor of the level btw.

just tolet everyone know warzone 2 should be out in about 2-3 weeks and will feature my mk II power armour which has multiple weapons and can walk forward and backwards now, plus it has a new stronger leg system for larger jumps and more durability

This level is so awesome I actually don't have much to say about it. You did a great job on the cinematics, it felt like an actual movie! It's also a great use of magic mouths, using them as cameras. I LOVED the effects too. You've done a great job on this. Congrats on getting a job at Mm and you're other levels are masterpieces too!

Hi johnee. Since you are one of my favorite hearted creators in LBP, I can't pass up this opportunity to share my comments on your trailer.

It was Magnificent!:idea:

nuff said:D.

Actually, there is more to say than that.

First of all, it's a good thing I can read, so I could follow the story line. But even if I couldn't, your trailer captivates the mind in a way that words really aren't necessary to thoroughly enjoy it. In other words, you have the kids eating out of your hands with this one, as well as the more mature audience.

This level was Sheer Mastery!

I have never given anyone on a review more than 1 Bravo, either here as a recent member, or as a member on LBW. In my book, Bravo is an outstanding achievement.

But in this case...

BRAVO! BRAVO!

And again, Magnificent!

I know this is not an F4F thread, but if you could ever find the time, I would greatly appreciate hearing your insightful feedback on my first level, Takken-The Beginning:).

Just checked this out myself. I'm very impressed... There are some great moments in this. Particularly the closeups. The flower, the bomb. Great reveals. Stellar ending. One of my favorite levels for sure!

You've always been a wizard with lighting effects. And I can tell you love the candle flame! That bomb was simply amazing... I never thought of using spotlights for large explosions.
